Was going to make something for my admins to have attached text holograms for admin-specific areas, so that it would display certain things like who owns that area and whatnot and also allow them to edit those text holograms.

I realize I'd be copy pasting code from my hologram module I made and it'd be highly redundant, so I'm building my own little PAPI replacement and I've got it mostly working.

It tries to search for things like %player_nameuser_USERNAMEHERE% in a sentence and tries to use whats after the PAPI-like target, with a data config for the procedures pulling information. Though I still have to make things on a choose/case basis it'll be nice to let admins basically pull whatever information they need to for holograms.

It even works with my custom chat replacer that you may see where it searches for color codes based on words. [w] for white, [blue] for obviously blue. Etc.

I can probably do things a lot better though.

Also my limited understanding of PAPI is the plugin just pulls information the same way I do, with something like %denizen_placerholder_blah%.

[fleet kernel]

wha

[dawn flower]

This is cool but "nameuser" for nickname is questionable naming

At least make it "username"😭

[fleet kernel]

name user

😭

[grim quail]

The naming is bad I know

It's to get the display name of a player's username.

Because I let players rename themselves.

[cloud sigil]

"nickname"?

"displayname"

[grim quail]

That's a better one.

#info message

[hallow scaffold]

From when can we report bugs for 1.21.6 dev? 😄

[foggy ember]

Well, once the build is out

[cloud sigil]

Any suggestions?
The obsidian blocks in the airstrike will be changed to models with a resource pack. The missing block (purple checkerboard) particles I'm also fixing with a resource pack.
Also going to add something that will remove floating blocks.

I also want to add a shockwave of dust hovering over the ground but that seems impossible

and one of my coolest of all (imo), area regeneration

[rain sun]

not sure if this is the right place to ask so direct me where it should go if its not.
i was looking at the denizen source code but i couldnt figure out where the NSMHandler functions are implemented.
where are the abstract functions from the NMSHandler and other helper classes implemented?

[cloud sigil]

make a thread/post

I guess?

[rain sun]

thanks

[shrewd estuary]

Ooh I get to have a Denizen tag. 🏷️

[cloud sigil]

there's a denizen tag?

interesting... how do you see if servers have a tag?

[unkempt torrent]

there was a popup for me

[cloud sigil]

huh

[wild cosmos]

click on it

[unkempt torrent]

but you can also set tags in your discord profile settings

[cloud sigil]

oh interesting

[hallow scaffold]

1.21.6 secure function? clicking inside books >.<

[wild cosmos]

😭 gg

[hallow scaffold]

https://www.reddit.com/r/MinecraftCommands/comments/1le1c42/help_with_confirm_command_execution_message/

found this

to use /trigger instead,... i have dozens of npcs with clickables >.<

[cloud sigil]

well, that sucks

hopefully they remove it quickly. I doubt people will be happy with that

[low radish]

why the fuck can non-permissions'd players emit click events tho

[hallow scaffold]

[hallow scaffold]

can denizen redirect denizenclickable to Trigger?
sry i have no clue about the technical background of the trigger command

[low radish]

Denizen already has a safe special thingo for that, just need to mark the denizenclickable command as not "require elevated permissions" to the client

[hallow scaffold]

i searched for that in the options menu ... where m$ hide that? or is there something like the mod to hide the dumb Securechat Toasts

[low radish]

I think it'd have to be data on the command somewhere

like, in the java code denizen uses to register it

though we are already doing fucky shit with it

Have you tested how it behaves re clickables? see first example @ https://meta.denizenscript.com/Docs/Commands/clickable

[worn oak]

in our scripts we ( @hallow scaffold ) use
example 1 and 2 - still the same thing - so thats not the solution

[low radish]

that wasn't a proposed solution that was just suggesting double check it's even a relevant issue

but yeah so that interception will need to be changed to (A) not hide the command and (B) mark it as not-elevated-permissions

[worn oak]

So wait and hope for the best
i doubt it would take long ^^

[mossy tide]

Ah shite I also use clickables for my dialogue system. I hope it's just for books and not chat issues

[shrewd estuary]

rip my Denizen tag

[low radish]

capitalized it and apparently that ripped it off everyone, you can just reapply

@lapis turret (#1388610598954074202 message) what is in that img?

how close are you to the thing

(want to move it here to not flood their thread)

[lapis turret]

Maybe ~ 150 - 200

I dont have the script rn

So cant be sure

[cloud sigil]

I can also spawn smth that looks like it came from far away, but it'll still disappear after the player moves 200 blocks away

[lapis turret]

Maybe that's clientside mods to nake the game smoother

Is there something to configure for this, or does it still require an denizen-update?

[mossy tide]

All I've got so far is a GUI, I need to do some heavy brainstorming for going forward. I think I want to have a physical inworld repair like my cooking system with fancy display entities.

[sonic rain]

Is making a post in #1023545298640982056 for unsupported denizen versions against the rules or is it fine?

I saw on #info that I shouldnt ask for support for old versions but it didn't say anything about hiring so I just wanted to make sure lol

[fringe hamlet]

• Your server must be running latest or second-to-latest server version (at time of writing, that is MC 1.19.2 and 1.18.2 - when 1.20 is released, that will be 1.20 and 1.19.2, no longer allowing 1.18.2... similar as more releases come) (outdated subrevisions, such as 1.19.1 instead of 1.19.2, are never allowed... you MUST be on the latest sub-revision, as is a base requirement for support in general)
#1023546486975373443 message

[sonic rain]

My bad then, sorry

[cloud sigil]

You guys ever wrote such terrible scripts you genuinely don't even understand what you're writing?

Like... wtf is this

(this is the rewritten version too of an even worse version 💀 )

my brain is so fried at this point

[cedar bane]

maybe get rip of flag.flag.flag and use
-define -define -define ?
leading to code which might be readable from outside people instead of saving 2ms runtime 😄
I usually do something like
- define angle <[diff].add[180].add[360].mod[360].sub[180]>
cause nobody can guess why you would add 540 instead of a half circle and a full circle aka 180+360

[grim quail]

I thought we were in #1098024603756015726

[cedar bane]

also if you struggling with many line of codes with many if/else or in while loops, use sub-path and procedures to do the job
e.g. when I would write the code of my proc_rift procedure into the loop itself I would have 20 line of more code in the while loop.
Now you can read get the nearest rift and angle between and to what those statements will lead to

[grim quail]

if argument being for borderline any command is really nice.

I like condensing things, I don't like nesting.

If I can, I will do:
- narrate "Blah blah" if:<[bool]>

[cedar bane]

yeah thanks that's a good advice as long those line are not too long for me
e.g. I could move the == null easily in the if statement behind the - while at the beginning, but the line was too long for me personally, so I move sometimes those in the while loop.
It reads now more like do this until the player did'nt have the item in hand or the item is not longer on

[grim quail]

Wait.

I thought you're not suppose to use periods in script names?

[cedar bane]

my procedure usage are object hacking? damn that sounds not what I expected
I saw the people using subpath with
- run task.subpath and tried it with procedures and they worked well.. but yeah I know about

!itworks

[weary moth]

Info: itworks

Many newer scripters tend to not realize the important difference between "it works" and "it is correct". Just because a script works does not mean everything's fine.

Helpers are encouraged to refuse to continue helping a user with the "if it works it's good enough" mindset until they fix all the things that are wrong (but seem to work) in their script.

Read a longer writeup explaining this idea on the forum here: https://forum.denizenscript.com/threads/public-information-writeup-the-it-works-fallacy.265/

[cedar bane]

nope

its a subpath from my procedure

[grim quail]

Oh. Huh.

[cedar bane]

please ignore the - determine true its a placeholder

I never use them without subpath

[grim quail]

I remember this not being a good idea.

I forget why.

[cedar bane]

maybe some devs might be rotateing at this moment I guess? Should I open a thread for clarification?

[grim quail]

#1176604853406019735 message

Otherwise, yeah I dislike nesting usually. I'll try to stop scripts early if I can just to preventing more nests instead of adding more.

[cedar bane]

ookay so a procedure should only have one output?
I mean.. I could technically use a procedure determination inside of a procedure to get the same result..
like passing player and nearest_rift which the second argument returns the determination of the nearest_rift procedure.

something like this. Or are - inject not supposed to used in procedure?

[grim quail]

You can inject in procedures, nothing wrong with that at all.

It's just that subscripts should generally be in their own sub key, as per my thread. subscripts injectables etc, as per what Inquisitor said.

Think we're devolving into worth a thread though.

[cedar bane]

yeah got it, using - inject proc_rift.subscripts.PLAYERS_IN_RANGE and moving the lines to right thanks.
and for clarification my first usage like <proc[proc_rift.subscripts.PLAYERS_IN_RANGE]> is still not valid, or was the only itworks fault the missing subscripts: ?
so should I stay on argument as input or go back? ^^

[cedar bane]

Is that an advice to open a ticket/thread? I 'm still developing english as it's not my native language

[grim quail]

Yeah, if you want more help on this it's worth a thread.

[cedar bane]

Will do thanks, I make an mcve

[dawn flower]

is that choose command necessary

cant you just - inject proc_rift.<[argument]>

[cedar bane]

https://discord.com/channels/315163488085475337/1395197369259393075
referring to this ^ inject ist finde, but as - inject proc_rift.subscripts.<[argument]>

*fine

[dawn flower]

i havent gone thru that thread the choose command just really bugged me 😭

[cedar bane]

actually it looks so

[dawn flower]

also if you have - define some_list:->:value you don't need to define it beforehand as an empty list

if it doesnt exist it'll be created with the value you're giving it as the first entry

[cedar bane]

technically, when nobody is online it will throw an error instead of en empty list

[dawn flower]

fall backs :)

[cedar bane]

gotcha, one line less 😄

[dawn flower]

it not a big deal i just really like as little lines as possible 😭

[wild cosmos]

in that case

you dont need foreach at all

[dawn flower]

you could totally one line it

👨‍🦯‍➡️

wait

i just actually read your code

!t find_players_within

[weary moth]

Tag: <LocationTag.find_players_within[<#.#>]>

Returns a list of players within a radius.
Result list is sorted by closeness (1 = closest, 2 = next closest, ... last = farthest).

Group

finding

Returns

ListTag(PlayerTag)

[dawn flower]

just use that from the center 😭

[fringe hamlet]

you could totally one line it

[dawn flower]

we need to have a one line competition

where we try to one line extremely messy stuff

[fringe hamlet]

depending on what you're doing, that doesn't really seem like too bad a challenge

!t if_true.if_false

[weary moth]

Tag: <ElementTag.if_true[<object>].if_false[<object>]>

If this element is 'true', returns the first given object. If it isn't 'true', returns the second given object.
If the input objects are tags, only the matching tag will be parsed.
For example: "<player.exists.if_true[<player.name>].if_false[server]>"
will return the player's name if there's a player present, or if not will return 'server', and won't show any errors from the '<player.name>' tag even without a player linked.

Group

element checking

Returns

ObjectTag

new #1204239476897878036?

[cedar bane]

I can easily half the lines yeah good catch, but ternaries or if_true if_false I use in tags on lore-items, not in procedures. one line is nice, but 3 lines good to read bothers nobody

[fringe hamlet]

sometimes, it's not about whether you should, but because you can

[cedar bane]

I mean I had 3 minutes to realise what a .flag.flag.flag could be until yeah, flag a flaggable object with an flaggable object, repeat

[dawn flower]

when i was still doing denizen half my scripts looked like this and i knew i could make them pretty but there were so many i couldnt be bothered

[fringe hamlet]

i just don't like repetitive sections when i know i could shorten it to something like this

[dawn flower]

as long as console isnt screaming i am not touching it

[fringe hamlet]

i did shorten my "error catching" script because i have 10 tags in there that i didn't want on one line

(yes, i use the on script generates error event and broadcast it to a dedicated discord channel, sue me)

[dawn flower]

honestly mood

i miss the ddiscordbot era i used it for everything

[grim quail]

Is this... Narration text with page stuff?

[fringe hamlet]

Yes. Different ranks have their own page of commands they can access under /help, this is a bar for them to click and go to the next or previous page without having to retype the command every time

[grim quail]

Hm.

Interesting.

That's something that has been on my todo list, is changing /help into it's own thing and making /commands the alter for vanilla help.

I already have injects for text based clickys.

#todo

[sullen scaffold]

Any recent updates towards denizen on folia? Last questions I saw about it were back in May, and folia has made some huge updates recently. For my purposes on a server I'm working on, I'd fit the specific usecase of folia where it would benefit me greatly, but I have a lot of good experience using denizen for small custom projects that I'd like to not have to write and compile plugins for. The versatility of just being able to reload the scripts in development is a huge bonus to me 😅

If the answer is no, thats perfectly understandable, I'll just have to look around at alternative options.

[grim quail]

#1150554880864424057 message Last answered in 2023, but it's been two-ish years so.

Might be worth a thread if another developer doesn't say something.

[sullen scaffold]

yeah, saw that thread 👍

[foggy ember]

It's not that it'll 100% never happen, its just a lot of work, for at the end of the day probably single/double-digit numbers of servers who actually benefit from running Folia, have the hardware to support it, and use Denizen.
Basically just, currently we'd rather focus dev time on better support for recent MC additions and such for the vast majority of users, rather then invest a ton of effort into Folia.

[sullen scaffold]

perfectly valid answer. Fewer users, not enough dev hours to branch for the minority of users. Appreciate the fast response. Denizen is a wonderful plugin. I've developed on servers where they ran half their custom items and seasonal events on it (bit extreme, but it worked 🤣).

Appreciate what you guys do.

older patch versions arent

!patchversion

[weary moth]

Info: patchversion

We support only the latest patch-version of Minecraft for any recent main version (and Mojang, Spigot, Paper, etc. all generally also follow the same rule).

"Patch version" means the last number in a version label, for example in 1.20.6, the main version is 1.20, and the patch version is .6.
So if 1.20.6 is the latest patch version, then 1.20.3, and 1.20(.0) are all outdated patch versions, and therefore are unsupported.

Note that we do still support recent older main versions (such as 1.19 and 1.18) so long as you are on the latest patch-version of those main versions (like 1.19.4 and 1.18.2).

Anyone here experienced with megizen? If so, how do you usually handle your mobs' AI?

[wooden drum]

Seeing the last Denizen dev build was over a month ago, can I safely assume it's stable enough to upgrade (I'm still on 1.20.4)?

[wild cosmos]

uh this is mostly due to mcmonkey not having enough time rn to review open PRs

most of them are bugfixes

but im running on 1.21.8 just fine

so you could give it a shot with proper testing and backups

[wooden drum]

I see. It's nice to hear there's active ongoing development

I think I'll wait for a tiny bit longer before updating then

[fleet kernel]

we love denizen spheres

[grim quail]

Might make the trip to latest minecraft, realize there might be a lot make work.

That sentence might be stroke inducing. I realize that there might be a LOT to make it work, since I've been running 1.20.4 for a good fat while.

Been waiting for more mechs to be segregated from item components so we don't have mega item components.

[mossy tide]

Been on 1.20.5 myself, haven't had the energy to make the big update

[fleet kernel]

wiped my entire server that has been on 1.20.4

just gonna make a new one atp

[frozen portal]

the server's tag should be changed to .dsc like skUnity has a .sk discord tag, I think it would look nicer

[frozen portal]

This DNZN tag is not it

[fleet kernel]

its cuz its denizen and citizens

but yeah i agree

[mossy tide]

BAM, still needs work, but damn I got it done.

When the item is from vanilla, it gets it's durability converted to the new system

[grim quail]

Neat.

[spice cosmos]

Looks good

[hallow scaffold]

Was there a transparent entity that was clickable and could be scaled depending on size? Interaction is always only as a square, is something other than a rectangle possible? There was something like that...

[unkempt torrent]

you're looking for something that is not a square in minecraft? heh

[mossy tide]

Wish it could be a rectangle or rotated

[hallow scaffold]

Yep...

[unkempt torrent]

i mean technically you could add multiple interact entities with different squared shapes and combine them together

[mossy tide]

Ooh I hate that

I remember doing a jank interaction to make barrel blocks

[tender cliff]

nonono

[foggy gorge]

so i can save myself the time of updating and logging in (lol) what happens normally when you try placing a ladder against a ladder?

if it typically stacks against it like wall signs do i might not use that same idea, but it looks really convenient and i like it a lot haha

[mint summit]

ladders can't be placed on ladders

[foggy gorge]

cool, then im totally copying this idea haha

[foggy gorge]

does your script check if the player is trying to place a ladder closer towards the bottom or top or does it default to trying to place a ladder at the bottom every time?

[grim quail]

It just places it beneath the ladder and checks continously.

[foggy gorge]

ah, i like the simple concept but im going to do the former with your idea as heavy inspiration if you don't mind 🤠

[grim quail]

Sure.

[foggy gorge]

I had to make a thread regarding some of it.

oo actually

oh nevermind

[grim quail]

Theres a slew of vanilla stuff I did, some of it I'm not sure I even did properly and need to go back to double check.

Like I have a event... somewhere that makes it so if you right click fuel on a furnace it'll auto slot it into the furnace. Same with cookable items.

[foggy gorge]

that's a really nice addition too actually

Possible Confusion

Did you mean to search for format script containers?

[weary moth]

Language: Format Script Containers

Format script containers are very simple script containers used for formatting messages.

Format_Script_Name:

    type: format

    # The only key is the format. The format can use '<[text]>' as a special def to contain the message being sent.
    # | All format scripts MUST have this key!
    format: [MyProject] <[text]>

'<[name]>' is available as a special def as well for use with the 'on player chats' event to fill the player's name properly.
Note that 'special' means special: these tags behave a little funny in certain circumstances.
In particular, these can't be used as real tags in some cases, including for example when determining a format script in the 'player chats' event.

duuid's in a nutshell

||disclaimer: i know duuids arent spam||

[grim quail]

I got really annoyed with my procedure for item text centering and clamping being wrong whenever it felt like, I really didn't feel like trying to unfuck whatever I was doing so I just made it again in a clean environment.

Happy to say it's seemingly working.

https://paste.denizenscript.com/View/137313 If anyone wants the script that I used, here it is.
This is the outdated version, check below.

I use /fixitem when holding an item to auto-generate a lore, which should give a randomly centered text, and then clamped down text to match the text width of the border.

This may not even fully fix my issue lol, but at least it'll be fine for text. I realize this might be an issue because I'm using unicode in my fancy item descriptors.

[grim quail]

Alright. Don't think it actually fixed my problem but I feel better knowing it works as it should though. Though I did oopsie it.

https://paste.denizenscript.com/View/137316 Forgot to accommodate for the final word if it's exceeding the width, oopsie.

Threw in some gradient on the center text for fun too.
Doesn't resolve the issue on my actual dev environment, but I have such a complicated set of scripts that I'll have to tear things apart until I find out why my text isn't centering, despite it using the same exact proc I just wrote.

Found out my previous issue, somehow extending the border I made in my custom items for... no real good reason? Don't have an explaination.

[grim quail]

The real reason I am going through any of this is to replicate the smithing table, and add to it. Mostly because of #1350649389135302748 message but also beecause it's giving me a reason to play with custom GUI, which is mostly working.

I fear the day I'm gonna have to look into how Arzero managed to make aligning text properly.

[graceful laurel]

they left the discord

[grim quail]

They didn't leave but I know what you mean.

They have like 3 public resources laying around.

I plan to use them to learn how they're doing alignment with stuff.

[graceful laurel]

oh i thought i saw them leave via #joins-leaves o.o

[grim quail]

#moderators message Cough, wheeze, hack. Not important to this channel though.

Point being is, I plan to look at their stuff sometime.

[graceful laurel]

yeah very cool shenanigans

[grim quail]

They've got some procedure for aligning text that I don't fully understand yet.

I realized my typo now.

I am not trying to sue them.

I am going to use their scripts.

[fringe hamlet]

hire wahr to see if you have a case

[grim quail]

I realized I typo'd again. I better stop before I say something else like how my dog did eight backflips because I wrote a denizenscript to do so.

[grim quail]

Oh man, trying to slap in two player names into a gui kind of sucks ass.

I'm doing hypothetical names and I think H has the longest text width of any character, and someone technically has that name.

If I tried really hard I could probably get them centered or something, but you'd never be able to get them side by side probably.

Unless like.. I guess I shrink the text????

[grim quail]

(I'll probably ask for help in my thread, but I just found it funny how long names get.)

[foggy ember]

One name above one name below ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Might not look terrible if you design the rest of the UI around that

[wild cosmos]

strip the name if you really need it 🤷‍♂️

!t elementtag.text_width based on width for example

[weary moth]

Tag: <ElementTag.text_width>

Returns the width, in pixels, of the text.
The width used is based on the vanilla minecraft font. This will not be accurate for other fonts.
This only currently supports ASCII symbols properly. Unicode symbols will be estimated as 6 pixels.
If the element contains newlines, will return the widest line width.

[grim quail]

Yeah this was more of a concept. You/them would work unless it's noted lol.

[unkempt torrent]

whatcha mean unless its noted?

[grim quail]

If you had a noted inventory, then it'd be confusing when you open it up and it says YOU THEM, and you tried to put an item in as the target underneath the YOU slots, then it shouldn't work because it's based on the requester?

It's why the name idea was a thing, but realistically you'd probably just want like TRADER TRADER and player heads next to them.

[unkempt torrent]

oh yeah, then have two noted inventories :p

[grim quail]

At that point just use generic inventories.

Well, non-noted inventories.

I can fit the names in if I really want to, I'll just have to figure out negative spacing properly so that they stay relatively on top of their respective areas. Which when I get to it (because I'll need to) I'll ask in my gui thread.

[hallow scaffold]

Is there a Meta changelog?

[unkempt torrent]

what do you mean exactly?

denizen meta information is updated through denizen code

[hallow scaffold]

hmm okay, then its not easy to detect whats changed on examples or descriptions

[fringe hamlet]

In the meta, you can click on the reference link at the bottom of each box to file the file, and at the top it'll show the last commit that included that file

Or for specific lines, you can select the "blame" tab and it'll show when each line was updated

[unkempt torrent]

I think they would like to have an overview of changes

[old venture]

im eager to understand how powerfulk Denizen is. I klnow the documentation says "very" but I had some interesting ideas for Minecraft plugins/functions and wondered if this is the correct place to ask more generic questions on wwhats feasible?

[unkempt torrent]

you can technically do anything and beyond what the spigot/paper api allows you to do so

you can also host webservers and discordbots from your minecraft server

[old venture]

Happy for me to spitball here?

[unkempt torrent]

(and also order pizzas in reallife)

sure

if it goes into detail you should make a thread though

[foggy gorge]

one of the funniest achievements people here make is actively replacing premium plugins with Denizen with more performant, prettier, and kooler functionalities

[old venture]

ok.

1. NPC (or group of NPCs) that walk from village to village picking up "things" in a specifically named chest (named after the village they are for) and dropping them off in chests in other villages also named.

2. Cell towers. Build a tower from 10 x fence + 1 redstone torch on top as an example and tag it in some way. This becomes a cell tower with a specific radius. I'd like to use this with SimpleVoiceChat which I specifically limit its current local radius, to create a wider cell network for anyone whos within a cell and whose cell is connected to other cells.

[foggy gorge]

https://youtu.be/5ml8EKTswu8
10/10

[old venture]

Yes I saw that 🙂

[fringe hamlet]

The first one is definitely possible, the second may require a Depenizen bridge to fully function depending on how SimpleVoiceChat sets its radiuses

[old venture]

do NPCs operate over long distances?

ie can their linear paths be very long?

[unkempt torrent]

yes but it sometimes helps if you have checkpoints

[old venture]

nice! and what about NPCs operating if there are no players on the server. Do I need to use some clever mechanisms to keep the server alive and tus the NPCs wandering?

[unkempt torrent]

npcs can load chunks iiirc

[old venture]

even better

i'll do some testing

[wild cosmos]

would you acutally need to operate them if none can see them? o.o

[foggy gorge]

personally, when i have instances where I know NPCs are going to be "doing things" when players aren't around to see it happening like doing mundane tasks. the only example i can think of is a shop NPC i once had pretending that it was going back and forth between the furnace/stove, cooking the raw items it was sold, and stocking their shop with the cooked items at their booth. when players werent online though, i just kept track of how long it would have taken it to of done it otherwise and just swapped out that much raw food for cooked food when it could have been relevant

a thread would be great for brainstorming all sorts of stuff you can do, including experimenting and getting more ideas with others

[old venture]

will do

[foggy gorge]

like actually making the npc mirror the player, always decide that it hates pet cats in it's shop, making it shoot lasers out of it's feet, and initiating your server's grandmaster boss fight when it finds out the player doesn't like lasagna

oh and giving it a shop pet chicken chicken jockey wizard who only speaks in broken spanish

[old venture]

I like the sound of your server!

[foggy gorge]

you'll love it until you see the skeletons i make riding the phantoms that spawn three times their normal size

everyone loves a phantom that uses ranged attacks

oh nooo i dont have on my repo the script that also makes phantoms have a chance to "pick up" players and drag them up like thirty feet into the air when they swoop down to attac, dropping you from tall heights lol

[zealous parrot]

Copper golem

[foggy gorge]

i wonder if copper golems mounted ontop of copper golems are any efficient

someone should /ex mount copper_golem|copper_golem|copper_golem for experimentation

[mossy tide]

We should strike one with lightning to see if its more efficient

[dark hill]

Mounting them is amusing - bottom two appear to access chests, while the top one just seems to be lazy.

[fleet kernel]

trickle down economics

[dark hill]

Top dude is "supervising" the work

[grim quail]

I wonder if theres a publicly available stat for how many github projects (Just a number) use denizen script.

[sinful spindle]

yes and no

^ 147 identify as denizenscript

some larger amount probably use denizen but github doesn't realise that

[feral stirrup]

Honestly looks like a super simple and cool script idea tbh

i already have a QoL script for dispensers that places sand and concrete powder for an easy redstone mechanic to farm up concrete a bit easier than just manually wetting them this is an awesome idea

[humble flower]

just make it less formal!
i noticed some people dont post in it because they're "scared" that it's held to a higher standard of script quality and post formatting

ofc, the script quality should stay, but if everyone started writing more casually in it, it'd eventually become more informal ;)

[fleet kernel]

sometimes i dont wanna post my scripts lmao

[foggy gorge]

[fleet kernel]

hyper leaking the entire harbormc codebase

[graceful laurel]

its so messy that i don't think there'd be much benefit in doing that lmfao

[foggy gorge]

so @graceful laurel i had the idea that i was going to go ahead and whip up another version of the script with a configuration at the top or from another file, so server owners could determine how they'd like their spear events work for themselves:

funny enough, one of the first ideas i had was the fact that people cling so hard to Minecraft's 1.8 combat...

making it so the players get totally launched just from spam clicking with that was always funny to watch

[fleet kernel]

make spear bigger

[foggy gorge]

@urban nexus I found a video uploaded by you showcasing a grappling hook of sort and having mentioned you used Denizen - but i dont see any kind of presence of yours here before; do you still actively develop with Denizen? would love to see more of your stuff

[foggy gorge]

^ o jk i just learned who you are lol nevermind - cool stuff and nice server!

[foggy gorge]

my fellow Denizzles, i have achieved what i believe is one of the most based and exciting surprise for myself with my future with Denizen and a C# project idea i wanted to contribute to
i wanted to wait until she actually joined so i could ping her here to throw a spotlight at her face but my verysoontobe wife is both interested AND planning on learning some Denizen later today!

she took some programming classes in college and actually worked with java which is fun, but we have been both coming up with fun ideas for B and little things we could do together to put it together; something also fantastic is that with both her degree in industrial design and being Significantly better than I am with modeling, she's able to help me with that being one of my biggest struggles lol

i'm setting up like, the whole workplace setup i think would be easiest for her to start working with, and we're gonna run through the whole guide, run a few exercises, and probably run through a bunch of resource pack stuff so we can implement that as we go too

but super excited it feels awesome to be with someone and share like, 95% of hobbies and interests to the point that we can actually do something like this together

[mossy tide]

Force her to accept your PRs, dev maxxing

[foggy gorge]

we were playing Part Time UFO with some friends yesterday at a party, and thought that we could totally make a minigame on Minecraft out of it

we'd just use happy ghasts as vehicles, create a fun claw type model to attach to an invisible armor-stand or something and leash it to the ghast to pick up and drop display entities disguised as oversized blocks or random furniture models

[storm shore]

Just wanted to say: the person who created quaternions is as much a genius than a demon. It's such a powerful tool but so hard to understand in an intuitive way 🥲

[mossy egret]

you can thank the goat william rowan hamilton

i know him more for hamiltonian mechanics though

[low radish]

when working with Denizen or any similar interface, the trick to understanding quaternions is: don't

funky math inside? Who cares, you don't need to know it. We had to know to impl in Denizen, but that's it

as far as you need to care, it's a rotation

you have an object that represents a rotation, you can combine multiple rotations together, you can pull the rotation between existing things, or you can use it to rotate an entity or whatever

[storm shore]

Yeah, I had some trouble when starting to do some "movement simulation" with display entities and their interpolation between rotation properties

I was a bit disapointed when I discovered that multiplying twice in a row by the same quaternion is like "doing nothing". And also that we can also change the scale of objects if we forget to normalize

[low radish]

that multiplying twice in a row by the same quaternion is like "doing nothing"
That's not twice: mult by one quat twice is equivalent to rotating that amount twice. It'd only be doing nothing if the rotation is 180 degrees

you also shouldn't ever need to normalize in normal usage

[storm shore]

I don't know exactly how I came to that result but I had a script which was supposed to apply a rotation of a few degrees (~30°) every second but the result was an oscillation between two states (0 and 30°) by growing up a bit each time.
I eventually understood how I was supposed to to it, instead of multiplying by a "magic" hand-made quaternion

Been a while

[foggy gorge]

fantastic - im going to be marrying a lady soon and she's willfully attempting to become a faithful Denizzle here with us

and she's been like, giving me tons of inspiration and motivation to script again

[spiral yew]

That's good.

Congrats ^^

[foggy gorge]

[spiral yew]

I was looking into typewriter, that thing looks interesting but I don't have the patience to learn anything new lol

And, it doesnt integrate cleanly with Citizens they use their own NPC system so I'm not sure how I feel about that. There's a reason Citizens is such a big project the features are hard to maintain.

Also, not sure i'm a fan of using in-game editor mods to edit the npcs and scripts etc

Which is what it looked like was how it worked to me

[foggy gorge]

oh, is typewriter a uh

what is that other than an old people keyboard lol

i literally cannot find it because i suck at browsing

[spiral yew]

In this case it's a plugin for writing and scripting quest chains and adding custom functionality

kinda like denizens

[foggy gorge]

ah icic

[spiral yew]

but all in-game

using a plugin (I think)

[foggy gorge]

this makes sense then

[spiral yew]

Plus what if I want to make the NPC do something truly complicated? If I can't control it with denizens what's the point

[foggy gorge]

maybe once my AGI Champagne is fully capable of writing large, dense, and functional code, she could generate helpful resources for this

[foggy gorge]

ohyeah this is sketch, for sure

a very dead project i had was a denizen script to procedurally generate structures to be placed in the world; heavily inspired by Fallout, i wanted to make Vaults that are compiled of villagers like villages - each with their own 'evil experiment' behind their shelter from the overworld and all the mobs and stuff, underground

and that's actually both coming back up now and might become my Tuesday/Thursday projects. It'd be nice to have a system like that to integrate into something like that

[proud drum]

@foggy gorge and I are getting me started on the beginner guide and we noticed the buttons to advance through the articles are looking a little funky on mobile. They light up once you've navigated to it, as if it's registering that you've previously clicked a link lol

[foggy gorge]

Is she really pinging me from less than nine inches away

[foggy gorge]

The buttons do look kinda hard to see at the bottom but uh

I think most people are doing this on a computerlmao

[foggy gorge]

Lol it do be weird on windows though

Iunno if monkey would want a thread for that kind of stuff since it's bootstrap

or because they should be on a computer alternatively

[low radish]

-# don't comment on the "nine inches" don't do it monkey this is a nice place don't make a comment don't no no aaa

[low radish]

doesn't really make sense to go through the guide on mobile generally, since you'd generally have a PC logged into minecraft and all in front of you while looking at it

so we haven't bothered validating on mobile at all

[graceful laurel]

I think I remember reporting this bug around when I started too lol

[foggy gorge]

i don't know if i should feel proud or bothered by how alarmingly faster she is learning Denizen than i did

[late cairn]

Does anyone know how to share player flags across two proxy-connected servers w/o using a backend DB?

[grim quail]

Sounds like it's worth a thread.

(Pretty sure we've had this asked before.)

[foggy gorge]

It'd imagine it has to be a common thing for bungee servers using denizen, I wouldn't see why you wouldn't if you actively script haha

[foggy gorge]

I know it's not us but it's still funny to see this is the best search result behind the beginners guide lol

[fringe hamlet]

It may be us, #actives-only message

[hallow scaffold]

Happy New Yearnizen!

[foggy ember]

Er no sorry yeah I meant to say I use 2 lol

[unkempt torrent]

look how cursed I am with using 4 spaces

[foggy ember]

4 spaces is the norm mostly lol

#changelog message heh I just realized I posted an example script in #changelog with 2-spacing lol

[low radish]

bad

[foggy ember]

Stop being spacist monkey >:(

[low radish]

4 spaces is actually obligatory sometimes

also 2 spaces is extremely annoying to read as you can't clearly make out the blocking

[foggy ember]

It's how I obfuscate my scripts

But Idk, just never bothered me I guess

[sinful spindle]

this is why i vary the spacing from 2, 4 and 6 spaces completely on whim. If nobody can read it without having a seizure, nobody can steal my code :D

[quartz wraith]

6??!?!??!

[mossy egret]

i use 1 space because its funny

[halcyon jungle]

Hell nah 6 is another degree of unhinged

[spiral yew]

Anyone have any half decent midi collections

lol

only song I have is pokerface and it's like the entire 3 minutes song

the plugin won't load in my 1.21.11 server

i'll make a post

i love MOTD randomizer - 'Ping the human' made me chuckle

i only imported Minecraft's funky random text at the start screen - i dont think i've ever even made much of an attempt to read them until i made them my own lol

Scale is fun.

I don't remember if negative scale is possible.

[foggy gorge]

negative scale is smoller i think?

i made my smol boi with /ex spawn creeper[has_ai=false;attribute_modifiers=<map[scale=<map[key=custom:scale;operation=MULTIPLY_SCALAR_1;AMOUNT=-0.5]>]>]

and now, mwahaha

creeper_handler:
  type: world
  debug: false
  data:
    modifiers:
      scale:
        key: custom:scale
        operation: MULTIPLY_SCALAR_1

      - define amount <util.random_decimal.round_to_precision[0.1].max[0.1]>
      - define modifiers <script.parsed_key[data.modifiers]>

      - adjust <context.entity> attribute_modifiers:<[modifiers]>

    after creeper explodes:
      - define amount <context.entity.attribute_modifiers.get[scale].first.get[amount]>
      - determine <context.strength.mul[<[amount]>]>```

fixed that sorry

[mossy tide]

Oh god baby skeletons, I'm getting PTSD from playing old Mekanism which constantly had baby skeletons spawning and being OP

[foggy gorge]

at least they aren't Bedrock skeletons

[mossy tide]

Idk, here's a skeleton which spawned with better than diamond armor and you can't hit it due to their strafing mechanic. What's that its only night 1 and you have stone equipment?

[graceful laurel]

what if, instead of exploding, creepers just kept getting bigger after priming

[spiral yew]

What if instead of exploding they randomly chose between exploding and getting larger haha, so you're on edge.

[halcyon jungle]

What if when they grow large enough they collapse under their own gravity and form a black hole

[storm shore]

Nice that it could help! I had some trouble figuring that out lmao

[storm shore]

Note that here the scale is (-0.5 (your amount) +1 (constant))×1(original scale)

I don't know what would result a real negative scale amount i.e. -2 for example (giving a scale of -1)
But I assume that a lower boundary exists

[unkempt torrent]

upside down entities?

[graceful laurel]

name them dinner bone and hide their name tag

[foggy gorge]

Yeah so no lie I really just copied and pasted so I wasn't thinking about that multiply_scalar bit - that makes sense! I appreciate that, thank

I did want to learn of course, I just wanted to see if it was true

I'll try making it a negative number sometime later haha

[spiral yew]

Thanks for the quick fix Aya.

[mossy tide]

What's it look like in the inv gui when hidden?

[spiral yew]

empty lsots

I think it used to be visible but there must be a change on the client code side

Maybe that's why it broke. Not sure.

The effects still seem to apply for the extra breathing.

and whatnot

[mossy tide]

have you tried changing the item_model to something that doesn't have an armor render?

Like a stone button

[spiral yew]

I have not. Not a bad idea.

That might make them equip the item on their head though (clientside)

Send me a snippet i can try rq

[mossy tide]

No no, change the item component for it

Gimme sec to find it

inventory adjust slot:hand components_patch:[item_model=string:minecraft:stone_button]

Oh I think it'd be easier to set a custom asset_id for the armor texture

That way the player still can equip and de-equip the armor, but it just has no texture or custom cosmetics

[spiral yew]

What would be the right way to disable the patch?

[mossy tide]

Probably change it to what it normally is minecraft:diamond

[spiral yew]

Well I can send you my snippet that works and then I can test it later if you don't want to try it. I have to setup my staging server before I can get around to it.

https://paste.denizenscript.com/View/138479

[mossy tide]

But hey I have no idea really what I'm talkin about haha

[spiral yew]

No it's cool, I like the idea of showing armour.

[mossy tide]

Probably on the thread you had would be better

[spiral yew]

Be worth it to try anyhow.

Yeah for sure, I'll go reopen it.

[mossy tide]

Anyway here's what I'm working on. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1443649465729683496/1458586802473406639/20260107-2222-59.0959107.mp4?ex=69602e50&is=695edcd0&hm=5e1e523227bde1278931581ec5b24760b2964cb4d8fb7007884d00de3fe7e1cc&

Spinnnnn

[spiral yew]

That is awesome.

How do you do something like that?

Is that a custom model?

[mossy tide]

Jank and lots of jank

[cloud sigil]

Mann why does minecraft not have this yet

[spiral yew]

I wanted to get into blockbench and add some custom stuff but I don't know how haha.

[spiral yew]

Too busy running a mob poll so they can add 1 mob per year

[mossy tide]

But yes, it's a 3d item_display, then a text_display, and finally a interaction entity to tie them together

[spiral yew]

You should write a mini guide on how to do it. I'd love to try making something and adding it to my server haha.

[cloud sigil]

adding blockbench stuff to your server is so annoyingly easy idk why theres not way more people doing it, I think it's great

[spiral yew]

Does it work on Geyser? That could be why.

[mossy tide]

Uh

[spiral yew]

I have to use geyser, just a friend group requirement.

And that would be one of the reasons I couldn't even touch it if I wanted to.

[mossy tide]

I was going to say you can technically do custom textures with some jank using Geyser, but 3d models is a nogo

Supporting Bedrock is ass anyways

[spiral yew]

Oh trust me I know.

I'm using skinrestorer so they can use their actual skins they want to use

[cloud sigil]

Convince your friends to switch to java

lol

[spiral yew]

It's all a headache

They play on Xbox.

Otherwise I would.

[mossy tide]

pain

[spiral yew]

NPC's already all show up as steve

nothing you can do to even fix that haha

I even bought them java but good luck convincing them to play using it.

[mossy tide]

If only mojang never made bedrock and instead just did a java emulator port to consoles

[spiral yew]

If they ever make an Xbox again it'll probably just be a windows desktop with a fancy GUI for controller users.

[foggy ember]

What do you mean lol, if anything Mojang has been adding too many features recently

[spiral yew]

I feel like the amount of money the game brings in we shouldn't need mob polls just add them all and prioritize adding one of them first based on the poll results.

[grim quail]

I want to support bedrock but my cool tooltip stuff doesn't work well on bedrock.

[spiral yew]

But fair enough, I don't develop for the game so I wouldn't know.

[mossy tide]

If models and custom textures worked, I'd support it

[rigid idol]

They are supposedly deobfuscating java, do you think or feel like that would immediately let server softwares like spigot and paper catch up way faster, and by consequence, modders and plugin devs would have less issues keeping plugins up to date and stable?

[foggy ember]

It won't greatly effect development, Paper already had entire toolchains to deobfuscate and remap the server source & are currently releasing their jars way before the full Minecraft release

It'll just make everything overall easier for the most part, and help with some specific parts of the source being more readable

[foggy ember]

Also they don't even do these anymore, haven't had mob votes for a while now

[spiral yew]

I see

[humble flower]

yknow, i cant look at mojingles nowadays and think they're doing something good. so im kind of scared much like an abused dog wondering how this will be used to enshittify java minecraft even more

[foggy gorge]

...wait .... are you rotating your camera view without changing your player's perspective??

:p

oh sorry i didnt realize that was the same user both replies

i wouldnt have ponged the second time

but custom items ^ is an easy way to add objects via display entities

[fleet kernel]

a mod i think

[dawn flower]

does this work from other player's perspective?

i've written something similar but other players could see my armor if i were to teleport away and back

or if they had joined after i fakeequipped my armor etc

it worked very conditionally

[graceful laurel]

it's a mod ye

[foggy gorge]

it spooked me because that would feel so nice to be able to do in vanilla lol

currently doing this and wondering if it's frowned upon, bad practice or whatnot, or if it's just cool and okay and just a different style

👀

inb4 "sure, but why"

[unkempt torrent]

sure, but why

there's a special key for subscripts to prevent a: vscode marking subscripts as errors, and b: scripts from breaking, if we add new keys into script containers

[humble flower]

there's a subscript key?! oh wow!
where is that in meta

[mossy tide]

you can fucking do what?!

[sinful spindle]

it's not a denizen 'feature' per se, it's a vs code one

you can technically read any key because that's just how yaml works

[low radish]

iirc task is allowed arbitrary subscripts and most others need the special key

anthony always spammed subscripts for everything way back when

[grim quail]

I use subscripts for inventory events.

I also didn't meant to ping respond.

It's handy when you have different calls for opening a main menu of an inventory with sub inventories, and keeping track of pages whatnot.

[humble flower]

nahh i much prefer it

[rigid idol]

Discord Levels Bot

Level up!

Congratulations @humble flower! You're now at level 7!

[unkempt torrent]

that remembers me of inventory actions

[humble flower]

ever since i learnt other languages aside from denizen, i started using more and more subscripts

[humble flower]

they dont NEED it, i have tons of world scripts with an "inject" key that i put all my subscripts into

[wild cosmos]

there are more languages than denizen??

[humble flower]

portuguese, english, and many many more

[halcyon jungle]

fake news

[humble flower]

nyegehehehhehehehe

[sinful spindle]

i think he means to not scream* in the editor

[humble flower]

every other programming/scripting lang is just a denizen reskin

[humble flower]

it doesnt scream either xD

just fully working, no downsides

[sinful spindle]

.... does it highlight other errors?

[humble flower]

...... i dont know. now that you mention it, its been quite a while since i got vscode screaming at me

[low radish]

actually, correction: a bunch of container types can have random scripts. All the ones not marked here

[humble flower]

oh yeah missing definitions get highlighted

[spiral yew]

Yes

And yes that's a third person camera mod on fabric I can grab the name in a bit

[humble flower]

my methods of telling vscode to shut up just went from noob to pro to hacker by understanding how ##ignorewarning works

[grim quail]

Did you just recently change your name.

[humble flower]

ya, at the exact same time when you pinged me and apologized for it

[grim quail]

I'd jest and change my name to LG_Legacy (ping for warn) but I don't think monkey would like that.

[humble flower]

LMFAO

LG_Legacy (ping for ignore)

[unkempt torrent]

almost all warnings that vscode prints to you are relevant

[humble flower]

i know what im doing bro trust

I can't even trust your spelling.

[spiral yew]

But you can trust that you can't trust his spelling.

[humble flower]

that just shows how disconnected ive become to normal people...... LMFAO
that's some internet lingo, kind of like leetspeak (y0u kn0w, typ1ng l1k3 th15), but with q's and v's

[spiral yew]

Trqst is not leetspeek

[humble flower]

kind of like

[spiral yew]

Don't you dare slander the very much readable and legible art of l33tsp34k

[humble flower]

IN MY DEFENSE, i f'd it up

it's supposed to be trvst the plqn

i did it wrong

😔

i'm a poser

[spiral yew]

1337SP34K is not for the faint of heart

I grew up in the trenches

[grim quail]

I can read leet speak, but I cannot type it.

[spiral yew]

I dug them so you could crawl

[grim quail]

I was there gandalf.

[mossy tide]

I'm going to have a stroke

[humble flower]

same, cant figure out which letters turn into which numbers

[spiral yew]

Phrasing

[mossy tide]

No

[grim quail]

Let's not.

[humble flower]

😔

[grim quail]

Gotta remember the target audience for minecraft.

Whats the rule again?

!rule 11

[weary moth]

Rule 11

Don'tn't.

If a helper pulled this up for you, stopn't do.

This message is not a warning, it is just for your information.

[spiral yew]

I'm gonna make a thread

About something I was gonna ask in here

I'm evolving

[grim quail]

I just realized my fish stat system is going to be problematic for cooking the fish, that'll be fun to work around.

[unkempt torrent]

why's that

[humble flower]

update: i didn't, and the ignorewarning was completely unneeded. actual fix: found ✅

🤦‍♂️

[humble flower]

just posted the script that made me question this in #showcase. go check it out!

[graceful laurel]

a bow trajectory visualizer would be a neat little scripting project

[humble flower]

with possibility of going from easy to hard depending on how you do it xD

[kind hill]

hello where i can download denizen for 1.21.8

[grim quail]

@fossil steeple cracked 589522164420706304

[fossil steeple]

Applied

Role applied.

Thread created: #1459060929177321626

[mossy tide]

What's the oldest version/first version of denizen that people can still download?

[grim quail]

Well the jenkins only goes back to 1.0.3-b500-dev

Which who knows what that version targets specifically.

[fringe hamlet]

there's denizen pre-release 0.8 from 2012, which seems to be around 1.4.6-7

[mossy tide]

Alright time to open and advertise a custom content MC server on 1.4.7 and suffer trying to do anything since we wouldn't have fancy features back then
